It's in line with expectations, and gave a 300% boost in NA.

And i have never heard of "Chips" shops...

Those are some pretty low expectations then...and the boost is nothing to brag about. We shall see if PSPGo sales remain strong.

It is still in line with Sony's "pretty low" expectations...

And a boost is a boost.

Before you make another "PSP Go fail" thread, why don't you wait and see if PSP Go sales remain strong?

Appearantly, the boost is from a few retailers: 3 days of PSP Go+PSP sales vs 3 days last week of PSP sales. Pretty bad if you ask me.

Its actually 3 days of PSPgo sales, vs all of last weeks sales so its actually slightly better than youre leading on.

The PSP go is nothing more than like whne MSFT introduced the Elite. Simply a different SKU to the family. PEople thinking its an evolution, or the NEW PSP are th eones saying it flopped.

I dont remember anyone making 360 fail threads when the elite was released, in fact, lets look at the Elite launching and its subsequent bump to overall 360 sales in the states.

http://vgchartz.com/hwcomps.php?cons1=Wii®1=America&cons2=PS3®2=America&cons3=X360®3=America&start=39194&end=39222

as we see, it increased roughly 20k from 40k and back down to 40k about 3 weeks later. PERSPECTIVE.


Exactly. All the Elite was there to do is give people who were already interested in buying a 360 another option to get a premium system and raise profit margins for MS. The Elite didn't target a new market. It didn't make people who weren't interested in a 360 all of a sudden want one. I can see the PSP sales go back down to 100k weekly. That doesn't mean it flopped. It wasn't suppose to spur sales and interest in a PSP. As long as some of those 100k buy a Go it would have done it's job. Get people who would have bought a 3000 to buy a higher priced more profitable model.
